How much does it cost to move in Brampton?
A Brampton move starts from a flat price that covers the first 2 hours: $410 for two movers, $530 for three, $650 for four. Truck, fuel and travel are included, and every price is before HST.
The usual Brampton price runs from $330–$450 for a studio up to $1,950–$2,550 for a four-bedroom, on a standard date with both addresses in the GTA. Every figure is before HST. The next section sets each home size side by side.
Nothing for the truck, fuel or travel is added on top of those prices. Every move also includes a professional crew, blankets and dollies, floor protection and furniture wrapping, and we are insured on every move.
Prices assume both addresses are in the GTA on a standard date. Month-end dates and moves with one address outside the GTA are priced higher. For a ballpark on your own home before you ask for a written quote, try the cost estimator.

What does a Brampton move cost by home size?
On a standard date with both addresses in the GTA, a studio costs $330–$450, a one-bedroom $450–$690 and a two-bedroom $900–$1,200. A three-bedroom costs $1,200–$1,500 and a four-bedroom $1,950–$2,550, all before HST.

|---|---|
| Studio | $330–$450 |
| One-bedroom | $450–$690 |

Prices include the truck, fuel and travel, on a standard date with both addresses in the GTA.
A two-bedroom move usually takes 5–7 hours crew hours, which is longer than the first 2 hours the starting price covers. The written quote is where your own figure is confirmed.
A studio or a handful of rooms may fit our small moves service. A full home goes through residential moving.
How do the starting price, extra hours and HST add up on a Brampton move?
The flat starting price covers the first 2 hours with truck, fuel and travel. Time after that is billed in half-hour steps at $120/hour for two movers, $160/hour for three or $200/hour for four, and HST goes on at the end.
Here is how a typical total builds. Take a two-bedroom on a standard date with both addresses in the GTA. The usual price is $900–$1,200, before HST, truck, fuel and travel included. That is the figure to budget around.
Now say your move runs longer than planned with two movers. The starting price of $410 covers the first 2 hours, and every half-hour step after that is billed at the two-mover rate of $120/hour. With three movers the same time is billed at $160/hour. The hourly rate is how extra time is billed, not what the move costs.
HST comes last. Every price in this guide is before HST, so standard Ontario tax applies to the final figure on your written quote to establish your complete move-day budget.
What changes the price of a Brampton move?
The date, the addresses and the route decide the Brampton price. Month-end dates and an address outside the GTA cost more, and a hard route such as steps, narrow passages or low ceilings can add crew time.
On our completed moves, 34% fall on the last four or first two days of a month. Month-end dates are priced higher than a standard date, so the date you choose moves the price before anyone lifts a box. The table above shows our other move figures.
Then there is the home itself. We know the difference between a Mount Pleasant townhouse move and a Castlemore detached move, and we quote them accordingly. Neither neighbourhood name sets the price by itself. The route inside and outside the home does.
Steps, long carries and tight access mean more time on the job. Time after the first 2 hours is billed in half-hour steps at the crew's hourly rate, so a harder route shows up as extra billed time.
Do packing and storage change the price of a Brampton move?
Packing Services and Storage are separate services we offer alongside moving. The prices in this guide are for the move itself, so ask for packing or storage when you request your written quote.
We offer packing services and storage. The prices above are the move: crew, truck, blankets and dollies, floor protection and furniture wrapping. We give no packing or storage prices in this guide, so those are not folded into any figure here.
If you want either one, say so when you ask for a quote. The price you are given in writing before the crew is dispatched is the price you pay.
How do parking and condo elevators affect a Brampton move?
Truck access and elevator booking can stretch a Brampton move. Confirm where the truck will load and when the elevator is yours before move day, because a short slot can delay even a small condo move.
One customer's elevator was postponed at the last minute:
“My service elevator got postponed last minute. They waited 4 hours until it was reinstated and then expedited the job. Stellar attitude, nothing scratched or broken. I even got a one hour discount even if they weren’t to blame.”

Does the date change what a Brampton move costs?
Yes. Month-end dates are priced higher than a standard date, so moving away from the last four and first two days of a month keeps you on the standard figures in this guide.
On our completed moves, our three busiest months are January, August and June. The three quietest are November, May and October. Those are counts of moves, not a price list, so the month-end rule is what sets your figure.
A move with one address outside the GTA is also priced higher, whatever the date. For longer distances, check our long distance moving service page.
How do you get an exact price for a Brampton move?
Ask for a written quote through the form at /get-a-quote/. Quotes are free and no-obligation, and the price we confirm in writing before the crew is dispatched is the price you pay.
Send your addresses, home size and photos through the quote form. Include outdoor steps, low ceilings and any narrow access, since those decide how long the crew is on site.
“Premium services, clear communication and very punctual. They helped us move our stuff from Mississauga to Waterdown in timely manner and team is highly responsive and efficient in the services they provide.”
